  • What Causes Cellulite & How Cellfinaâ„¢ Smoothes Away Dimples

by Dr. Kaufman | Oct 4, 2017 | Cellfina

What Causes Cellulite & How Cellfinaâ„¢ Smoothes Away Dimples

Cellulite is a condition that creates a dimpled or lumpy appearance of the skin. Most common along the thighs and buttocks, cellulite is often characterized by decreased skin elasticity and blood flow. According to research, 90 percent of women will show signs of cellulite at some point during their lifetimes.

Causes of Cellulite

The causes of cellulite are hard to pin down. However, those in the medical profession accredit cellulite to simple genetics. Certain hormones, including estrogen and prolactin, are attributed to the development of cellulite as well. This could explain why the condition is far more common in women than men. Further, tight clothing, such as underwear with elastic rims, can limit blood flow and increase the risk of cellulite formation.

Cellulite Fixes That Work

Surprisingly, cellulite is not correlated with a high BMI, so even thin women are at risk.

Many solutions have been suggested to treat cellulite, including massage, heat therapy, ultrasound, topical creams and oral medication. However, none of these methods have been proven to effectively reduce the appearance of cellulite. It’s also been suggested that reducing stress, eating healthy and exercising could help to avoid the formation of cellulite. Nonetheless, getting rid of pre-existing cellulite generally requires the help of your plastic surgeon.*

Cellfinaâ„¢

Cellfina™ is a minimally invasive cellulite treatment that uses a needle-like device to release the tension in the tight bands of the connective tissue responsible for cellulite’s dimpled appearance.* This procedure usually takes about an hour and a half, and most people return to work the day following their appointment.* Although individual experiences vary, improvements are generally visible within 6 weeks after the treatment, and results can last for up to 2 to 3 years.*

If you’re interested in learning more about Cellfinaâ„¢, check with your plastic surgeon to see if you could be a candidate for this cellulite treatment.
